i have a slight problem with my new wireless router (speedtouch 585). When
i connect to the router using an ethernet cable i can access the internet
no problem. however, when i try to connect to the internet with wireless I
can see the web page for my router and make modifications to the set up etc
but i cannot access the internet.......why on earth is this so?
i have set up wireless with WEP, using Win XP SP2 on a fairly beefy PC.
thnaks for your time

Hello,
did you try these tools (Dr SpeedTouch,SpeedTouch Diagnostics) for
connection problems,also try disabling ethernet and firewall on the
pc,check the wep setting on both.
thanks for reply - problem down to my own stupidity.....previous router
settings had given a manual IP address and i have now set it up so that IP
addresses are given automatically.
